We consider two classes of piecewise expanding maps $T$ of $[0,1]$: a class of uniformly expanding maps for which the Perron-Frobenius operator has a spectral gap in the space of bounded variation functions, and a class of expanding maps…

Let $(X_1,\ldots,X_n)$ be an i.i.d. sequence of random variables in $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\geq 1$. We show that, for any function $\varphi :\mathbb{R}^d\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$, under regularity conditions, \[n^…

In this article, we study exponents which preserve complete monotonicity of functions on lattices. We prove that for any completely monotone function $f$ on a finite lattice, $f^\alpha$ is completely monotone for all $\alpha\geq c$, where…

The nonlinear semigroup generated by the subdifferential of a convex lower semicontinuous function $\varphi$ has a smoothing effect, discovered by H. Br\'ezis, which implies maximal regularity for the evolution equation. We use this and…

Consider the random process (Xt) solution of dXt/dt = A(It) Xt where (It) is a Markov process on {0,1} and A0 and A1 are real Hurwitz matrices on R2. Assuming that there exists lambda in (0, 1) such that (1 - \lambda)A0 + \lambdaA1 has a…

A fundamental theme in classical Fourier analysis relates smoothness properties of functions to the growth and/or integrability of their Fourier transform. By using a suitable class of $L^{p}-$multipliers, a rather general inequality…

Let $\boldsymbol{X}$ be a $d$-dimensional random array on $[n]$ whose entries take values in a finite set $\mathcal{X}$, that is, $\boldsymbol{X}=\langle X_s:s\in \binom{[n]}{d}\rangle$ is an $\mathcal{X}$-valued stochastic process indexed…

We provide the structure of regular/singular fast/slow decay radially symmetric solutions for a class of superlinear elliptic equations with an in- definite weight on the nonlinearity f (u, r). In particular we are interested in the case…

In the first part we present a generalized implicit function theorem for abstract equations of the type $F(\lambda,u)=0$. We suppose that $u_0$ is a solution for $\lambda=0$ and that $F(\lambda,\cdot)$ is smooth for all $\lambda$, but,…

Extending the elementary and complete homogeneous symmetric functions, we introduce the truncated homogeneous symmetric function $h_{\lambda}^{\dd}$ in $(\ref{THSF})$ for any integer partition $\lambda$, and show that the transition matrix…

We report some properties of heavy-tailed Sibuya-like distributions related to thinning, self-decomposability and branching processes. Extension of the thinning operation of on-negative integer-valued random variables to scaling by…

We consider infinitely dimensional classes of functions and instead of the relative error setting, which was used in previous papers on the integral norm discretization, we consider the absolute error setting. We demonstrate how known…

Normalizing flows are a promising tool for modeling probability distributions in physical systems. While state-of-the-art flows accurately approximate distributions and energies, applications in physics additionally require smooth energies…

This paper is concerned with the characterizations of fixed points of the generating function of branching processes with countably infinitely many types. We assume each particle of type $i$ can only give offspring of type $j\geq i$, whose…

We consider the space $A(\mathbb{T}^d)$ of absolutely convergent Fourier series on the torus $\mathbb{T}^d$. The norm on $A(\mathbb{T}^d)$ is naturally defined by $\|f\|_{A}=\|\widehat{f}\|_{l^1}$, where $\widehat{f}$ is the Fourier…

A basic problem in smooth dynamics is determining if a system can be distinguished from its inverse, i.e., whether a smooth diffeomorphism $T$ is isomorphic to $T^{-1}$. We show that this problem is sufficiently general that asking it for…
